farmer chick's nutrition & wellness Holistic Nutrition Consultant

When most kids wanted to be doctors, lawyers or firemen, I wanted
to be an ethnobotanist.  There was no coursework at the university 
I enrolled in, so I went two years and left for a rather successful 
career in computers, database design and data/ statistical 
analysis.   I took college courses on the side that interested me.  

After leaving the data world, I focused on my autistic son.  
Remembering the diets of the 70s for hyperactivity, I altered his 
diet and started reprogramming his brain the way I knew... 
research, nutrition and line by line edits.  I was also blessed to run 
into work done by Drs. Toni Attwood and Jeanne McAfee.  Yes, I 

succeeded.

I continued to study on my own, then enrolled in a 500 hour 
certification program to become a Nutrition Consultant through the 
Global College of Natural Medicine in Santa Cruz. I also 
participated in Jeffrey Smith's first GMO Speaker Training, and 
hold a Usui Reiki Master Teacher status.  Currently, I am working 
toward certification as a Master Herbalist and Holistic Health 
Practitioner.

I am inspired by Dr Fuhrman, Dr Mark Hyman, Dr Andrew Weil,
Dr Max Gerson, Charlotte Gerson, Paul and Patricia Bragg,
Rev George Malkmus, Dr Sherri Tenpenny, Dr Deepak Chopra 
and others. I am also fascinated by the various religious texts in 
regard to nutrition and wellness.
